Slow speed today
I am only getting 10meg download this morning in the WN2 postcode area.

Rebooted modem and made no difference so will see how it goes before contacting VM.

Another helpful comment so how long have you had BT fibre as last time you got a good deal on VM 120Mb/12Mb.

To the OP can you post your modem stats? are you testing wired or wireless?

Plusnet is available ADSL/ADSL2+/FTTC in the whole of nationwide of UK because it based under BT Wholesale network. More fool you broadbandking. He doesn't know what he was talked about.
